One of the best movies I've ever seen

Rating: 10/10 (23 July 2005)

I was fascinated behind the basic premise of "The Island" before I even saw the movie. The Idea about clones being used for "spare parts" is an all too real possibility in the near future. Though the film greatly touches on the negative aspects of cloning, it also somehow almost justifies it.
Ewan McGregor and Scarlett Johansson pull off their roles as clones perfectly. Their roles, which require them to act almost like innocent children, yet behave like adults, create an unfathomable connection with the audience. When watching this movie, I cannot help but think back to the days of my childhood, back when my mind was simple and curious, and not corrupted by society like I shamefully admit today.
Scarlet Johansson's character Jordan is the perfect woman in my eye. I would also assume that many women today would consider Ewan McGregor's character Lincoln the perfect man. For you religious nuts out there, these two can be compared to Adam and Eve, as they both are innocent, beautiful, and very curious.
Though I assume most of you already know the basic plot, as the previews show quite a bit, I will still cut myself short, as I do not want to give anything away. Let's just say that few movies have ever given me as much joy as this one. I actually caught myself grinning during a few of the scenes, not from amusement, but from amazement.
